Greetings
If you care, I prefer adding them to the inet module.

It is an oversight, or rather it is on our ToDo list.
But we have not decided if it is those we will document, or if
it is better to create wrappers a'la inet:parse_address/1 to
not expose the module inet_parse as an API module...
There are too many using these so it is probably not possible
to remove them without a deprecation cycle, even though they
never have been supported. And they will not be deprecated
until there are alternatives e.g in inet.
